Good idea! Maybe this could become a info page on LiveWire? ...maybe it already is somewhere.


EDIT: I like the header    though, I think the image is to wide for most printers making the text get cut off the page. In other words, the html page isn't printer friendly.

I'm sure you're not wanting critque, but oh well.


where teens advise each other on the problems and issues that they face in this often challenging years on the road to adulthood.

... or something.

Also, this is one hellalong run-on sentence.


We provide several options for seeking support, including the forums, resources (lists of informational websites for teens), the Serious Forum, which is a forum where only users who have a strong background of giving honest advice, who are called Support Leaders, can reply, and eHelp, where problem solving suggestions from Support Leaders and Moderators is almost instantaneous and can be absolutely anonymous.


Break it up or something.
We provide several options for seeking support. The forums offer a broad range of topics covering everything from homework help to technical questions to ways of dealing with friends and family. The Resources list is a directory of various informational websites for teens that deal with issues such as abuse, suicide and depression. The Serious Forum allows members to ask for advice and receive helpful suggestions and support from our Support Leaders who are members that have a strong history of giving beneficial advice. There is also eHelp where teens can anonymously ask questions and receive problem solving suggestions from Support Leaders and Moderators almost instantaneously.

I dunno. Just an idea. The long sentence got me confused. It was really hard to follow.


Anyway, the letter is ok. I'd never show it to my mom, but that's ok. Not because it's shitty, I just know she wouldn't approve of LW.

Also. I think this sentence sucks: We believe that if every teen who frequented an online community switched to LiveWire the internet would be a safer place for teenagers.

It's so egotistical. And unless you're Ryan or Jared, Egotism = lame.

Your revision of the run-on sentence IS much easier to follow, Kim.  Though if we used it I'd nix the part "covering everything from homework help to technical questions to ways of dealing with friends and family. "  because I already mentioned examples of forums in two other places.  

Still, breaking it up into sentences like you did is much easier to comprehend than our abusive comma raping.

My parents never disapproved.  Somebody that I met on Livewire is actually allowed to come stay with me this summer.

You guys did a good thing writing that letter, though.  I didn't read it all, but what I did read, I think parents will approve.

If my parents disaproved of LW, I would show them that letter.

Fortunately, they have no problem with LW, and they know about it, and what my member name is.

Brava! Marvelous, I think this is really gonna help some of the members get past any parent problems. I won't be one of those members because my parents are single-minded fools who think that a forum is a chat room and I, therefore, will shortly be abducted by mini green aliens I met online. But that's ok, because it's worth a try. Good on ya.

By the way, did I mention that the above mentioned mini green aliens will be equiped with dark glasses, ear pieces and rather large, purple clown shoes?
